Review: "Night at the Vulcan"

 

Martyn Tarne makes her way to the Vulcan hoping to become and actress in Ngaio Marsh’s Night at the Vulcan.  She is hired, but as one of the dressers.  From this vantage point, Martyn give the reader insight into the six actors in rehearsal – the six types of actors one might encounter in a theatre production.

When the husband of the leading lady is found dead, Martyn finally gets the chance to act, and Inspector Alleyn is called in to solve the case.

This is not one of my favorite Marsh books, but it is still a good mystery.
